There's Something Bigger Going On! by Pastor Brent Lokker

There's Something Bigger Going On! By Pastor Brent Lokker Sunday was Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. It ushers in the 10 "Days of Awe," a time to intentionally reflect what God is doing on the earth and ask how we need to align ourselves with His purposes.  I shared this word last Saturday night at Blazing Fire, taken from Tony Cavener: The year we've just entered, 5777, will be a breakout and breakthrough year! Five is the number of grace and the number of government, and the five-fold expression of God. Seven is the number of rest; it can symbolize a sword, and it represents the perfection of the finished work. This year we will begin to exercise His authority and government in a way like we've never experienced before, as we enter into a rest in Him like we have never known. We, the new covenant people of God, are poised for a moment in the Kingdom of God like the days when Joshua and Caleb went into the Promised Land and took the land that was their inheritance. We are moving into a 7-year period of great favor, provision, and victory in the Body of Christ! Don't look at the giants in the land, or the fortifications of the enemy, for the Lord is with us! This is a time of completing purposes and bringing them to fullness. Let the Sword of the Lord be placed in your hand so that you can cut your way into the future! This is a year that we will see the "triune" sword of the Lord released against His enemies and continue through this new season! And this word about the year 5777 from Johnny Enlow: The REST that God has for us is the inheritance of the nations (Ps. 2:8). The REST He has for us is seeing the reformation of society. This is our Promised Land and it is "His REST" He has provided for us. It simply means He has already done all the preliminary work of securing total victory of the mission and all that remains for us is the courage to show up where He told us to show up. In REST the children of Israel took Jericho. They did not have to develop explosive weapons to blow up the thick walls of Jericho. They did not need to hope for helicopters. The victory was already assured; they only needed to show up with the intent of obeying the commandment to inherit the nations. Yes REST is also learning to do ministry in balance, not burning out body, soul and spirit; but beyond that the REST of 5777 is that we are assured victory, after victory after victory – if we will finally connect to the correct narrative that He has for us. We are now accelerating towards where we will be known for our love, for our healing power, for our societal solutions, for our kindness, for our innovation, for our wealth, for our patience – almost entirely of things we are not presently known for. The good news is we are all going to shift or be shifted. This Hebraic year becomes a reset year even for the Church. She will begin to be more Kingdom than ever, as the Holy Spirit pours out Himself in all of the right places and on all of the right people, in all of the right measures. This Is An Exceptional Time to Be Alive! There's never been a time in history as alive with the purposes and intentions of Papa God as the times we are living in.  It's time for our spirits to be awakened by His Spirit so we can wholeheartedly say "Yes" to being part of all He is doing on the earth!  To hear my message from last Saturday, There's Something Bigger Going On, click here: http://blazingfire.podbean.com/e/theres-something-bigger-going-on-brent-lokker/ With Much Love, Pastor Brent
